A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 410 What’s going on?



Chapter 410 What’s going on?

“I feel like this hall is empty; there’s nothing inside,” Dosru said.

Indeed, the main hall was empty, just like an empty "classroom".

“There, there’s a door over there,” Chao Bufan said, looking up at the head of the main hall.

When the others looked, it was indeed a door, and a stone door at that.

"Bufan, you said there would be..."

Before Bridal could finish speaking, Super Extraordinary interrupted him: "Don't ask me, I don't know what's inside either."

“Don’t you have a sixth sense? Try to sense it!” Fenrit said.

"What, do you really think I'm a god?" Chao Bufan retorted.

“I don’t think so. I just want to know in advance what’s going to happen so I can be mentally prepared,” Fenrit said calmly.

“Exactly,” Dosru agreed with Fenritt.

“Bu Fan, since you are our elder brother, we will naturally listen to you in everything,” said Bridal.

"But the problem is, you brought us here, so we're counting on you for everything that's going to happen next, aren't we?" Chao Bufan said seriously.

"It's true that I brought you here, but I don't have any extraordinary sixth sense!" Bridal brought up the "sixth sense" again, his meaning clear: everything depends on you.

"You're quite the smooth talker. Alright, as you wish."

With that, he walked toward the stone door, and Bridal and the others quickly followed.

There were no handles or switches on the stone door. Chao Bufan walked to the stone door, looked around, and then tried to push it open with his hands. But no matter how hard he pushed, the stone door wouldn't budge, as if it were nailed to the ground.

"Can't it be opened?" Bridal asked.

"Okay." Chao Bufan nodded and said, "You all help me look for any traps or mechanisms."

Bridal and the others did as instructed, searching the walls around the stone gate one by one. After a moment, Curry pointed to a corner of the wall not far away and said, "Look, what's that?"

It was a potted plant, and its green leaves seemed somewhat out of place in this empty hall.

Chao Bufan didn't say much, and walked towards the small grass, while the others stared at him with puzzled expressions.

He grabbed the blade of grass and gently pulled it upwards. Suddenly, the stone door clicked open.

"Hey!!" The others were startled, thinking it was some kind of trap, and they quickly took a step back, their expressions tense.

Seeing this, Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, jokingly saying, "Look at you all so nervous. It's just a switch, why are you so scared?"

"Don't talk like that when you're not in the situation. If this were really a government agency, would you still say that?"

Bridal rolled his eyes and headed straight for the stone door. When he reached the door, he craned his neck to look inside and exclaimed in surprise, "What?"

Fenritt and the others thought he had seen something "good," and in their excitement, they rushed forward, almost stuffing Bridal inside. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, stumbled, grabbed the door frame with one hand, and used the other to block the people behind him, saying in a panic, "Be careful, back up quickly."

Although Fenrir and the others were stopped, they could clearly see the scene inside the stone gate. They didn't know if they had heard what Bridal had said, and for a moment, they were all stunned.

It turned out that the stone gate led not to a treasure trove as one had imagined, but to a bottomless precipice. There was no path behind the stone gate, only a sheer drop, much like a doorway on a cliff edge atop a mountain. If one were to step through this door, the outcome was predictable: a fall to one's death.

This place looks like a fractured canyon. It is unknown how long the canyon is, but it is known that it is more than 100 meters wide at one point. On the other side of the canyon, opposite the stone gate, is a cave.

Chao Bufan walked behind Currydo, tiptoed slightly to look at the other side of the stone gate, and then said indifferently, "Excuse me, could you please move aside?"

Curry and the others awkwardly moved aside to make way. Chao Bufan walked to the stone gate, first peeking out to look down into the canyon, then at the cave opposite, and said calmly, "In crucial moments, you still have to rely on me."

Bridal had retreated to the stone gate and asked in bewilderment, "Bufan, do you know how to get across?"

Although they were startled by the canyon, they quickly discovered the cave on the opposite side. They knew that since there was a cave directly in front of the stone gate, and there was no "bridge" between them, it meant that there must be a "mystery" inside the cave.

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "I told you, I'll have to step in when it matters."

Upon hearing this, everyone was overjoyed. Curry suddenly spoke up, "There doesn't seem to be a way across here. How are you going to get there? Are you going to fly?"

"Then try flying over there?" Chao Bufan retorted. "I guarantee that if you just fly over like that, you'll be smashed to pieces in the next second, believe it or not?"

Upon hearing this, Curry quickly took a step back and said somewhat fearfully, "I'm not that stupid! Being alive is such a wonderful thing."

"Then please stop asking these questions that even a three-year-old wouldn't want to hear, okay?" Chao Bufan glanced at him and said indifferently.

"Alright, all of you stop interrupting. Bufan, can you tell us how you plan to get there?" Bridal spoke up.

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and then said, "Watch closely."

With that, Chao Bufan strode forward...

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned when they saw it, and then they were shocked.

What... what's going on? Bufan didn't fall, but instead...

Chao Bufan had anticipated their strong reaction, so he turned back to them with a faint smile and said, "See? Just let it go like this."

As he spoke, he continued walking forward, with nothing beneath his feet, walking steadily as if "walking in space."

After the initial shock, Bridal and the others looked at each other. Then, Bridal seemed to understand and said excitedly, "Goodness, so that's how it is."

"You know?" Fenrit asked quickly.

"See that? It looks like there's no bridge here, but there is. It's just a transparent bridge that's invisible to the naked eye," Bridal said, but in his heart he was thinking: What kind of existence is this kid? He can see things that even we can't see. It seems this kid is getting more and more interesting. In fact, not only him, but the other three also thought the same thing. They were becoming more and more interested in this eccentric genius, Chao Bufan.
